GeorgiaDoesStufff here ya go. Today felt like a two story upload kinda day anyway.
*Time skip to unpacking before everyone else gets there (Graser is pretending that he hasn't been there for a day already)*
The car ride was pretty uneventful in comparison to our normal car rides, the most exciting part was after I sent the photo from Liam's phone I had a pretty violent panic attack and so we pulled over and Liam chloroformed me. We ended up getting a room with one big bed instead of two smaller beds, we said that it was just because it was cheaper but I think it was just because he is hoping I won't scream if I have a nightmare if he is beside me. I forget it sometimes but he is the nicest person I have ever met, even when he is aggressive about it. He helps me when I can't function, he makes sure I take my meds, he keeps me fed and he loves me so damn much. "I love you, Liam, you are the best big brother I could have asked for," I say hugging him tightly. "I love you too Shelby." He says patting my head before returning the hug.We end up deciding to just chill on the couch which means snuggling or rather me laying on Liam while he tries to scroll through Twitter. Will and Em walk through the door so I do something bolder than I would have never expected from myself. "I love you, big bro," I say smiling at him. Will's eyes widen and Em who he clearly hasn't told seems happy. "Aww, you two are siblings that's so cute." She says giddily. "No, we just wanted to see how Will would react to it given the photo we sent him," Liam says laughing. "What photo?" She asks confused. "Well I slept shirtless and Shelby had a nightmare so I came to talk to her and so once the adrenaline wore off she crashed. Or rather she crashed on me, and I felt bad about waking her up so I let her sleep like that and we woke up that way so I took a photo of it because it was funny considering we act like siblings." Liam tells them both laughing. "I swear, you are fucking evil H!" Will says unamused. "I know." He responds with a wink.
Will and Em went back to their room and since Graser and Parker are planning on arriving later so, Liam and I decide to try combat lessons again. "Alright now for practice, I think we should spar let's do this." He says. We decided against gloves so I could learn proper technique. Sparing is actually really fun, we get to fight without hurting ourselves and it is actually doing wonders for my anxiety. It stressed me out a ton at the beginning but after a few minutes I calmed down and it became fun. I decide to try something kinda bold but very cool, I lift my leg high and use the bridge of my foot to tap the side of his head. "Nice but doing that in an actual fight would be a terrible idea." He says smiling at me. "Not my fault that you are the only guy short enough for me to kick in the head and I had to take the opportunity," I say laughing and pushing his shoulder lightly. "Let's just go again so I can whop your ass." He says smiling. I start coming at him to change up my strategy to a more brawn less brains style. Suddenly I hear a door open and I am pinned against the wall with my wrists heald so tightly I start to lose feeling in my hands, I am sobbing so hard I can't see and so when I feel the person loosen up I run to Will and Em's room. "Get me away please," I beg them and I get carried into the car and brought to a hotel.
They set me down in a room and let me cry, a while later Em comes back with a backpack that has all of my comfort things and my meds in it. But then she leaves like everyone else always does she leaves me to cry. I dry swallow my pills and then I get a text from Graser saying he was coming over. After maybe 20 minutes I hear a knock at my door and I open it expecting Graser but I get someone much better-
Liam. His hands are bloody like he got into a fight but he seems so happy to see me. You know what I am not a bold person or anything even remotely close to it but I am going to make a bold decision. I am taking Liam back to Parker whether he likes it or not. I call Em and get her to drive over with the chloroform and we drug Liam and bring him back. I hate doing this but I won't be the reason that he loses his best friend. After I have gotten into the car I feel a panic attack coming on but I bite my tongue and hide the insane amount of anxiety I am feeling.
Walking into the hotel room I see Parker curled up and bloody with Graser and Will comforting him. "Hey, you are going to be okay Parker. I can keep Liam calm once he has woken up and then you two are going to talk." I tell him calmly as we drag Liam's unconscious body in. "Did you guys?" He asks confused. "Not the first time I have done it, now I am making hot chocolate and everyone is having some!" I say in an attempt to keep everyone calm. Then I pull out my backpack and grab my weighted blanket to put on them, before grabbing the mason jar of hot cocoa supplies and starting the kettle.
We all sit in silence covered in comfort blankets. Until Liam wakes up, he is almost entirely asleep though which is probably a good thing. I hope that everyone just plays along with what I am about to do. "Hey, Liam you got a bit too protective after a misunderstanding so I knocked you out. You are in the hotel room, just take some deep breaths and then we are going to talk." I tell him in a calm but pretty quiet voice. "And if you need to you can tell him everything, you trust him and I trust you so that is good enough for me." I whisper into his ear. "So now I know why I was warned about how protective you are," Parker says smiling. "Sorry about that dude, I get pretty punch first ask questions later when it comes to Shelby." Liam responds sadly. "I get it, but can we talk in private for a minute." Parker asks hesitantly. "Yeah, you can even punch me a bit if you want," Liam tells him with a smile. "Okay then you guys can go back to your rooms, I have chloroform if it gets out of hand," I say turning to the others. "Fine but call us if anything goes wrong," Graser says as he hugs me before leaving.
"I am going to sit in the corner with my blanket, hot chocolate and headphones. And you two are going to talk this out." I tell them before grabbing my stuff and going into the corner. I sit down facing the wall, to be honest, I am super uncomfortable but anything to keep them being best friends.
